Getting error on mongoDB connection

Am getting error when connecting to mongoDB hosted on railway.app when using the connection uri without database name i.e. mongodb://user:[email protected]:24727 it works fine and connects but on using uri with db name mongodb://user:[email protected]:24727/dbname gives authentication error MongoServerError: Authentication failed. at Connection.onMessage (/app/node_modules/mongodb/lib/cmap/connection.js:205:26) at MessageStream.<anonymous> (/app/node_modules/mongodb/lib/cmap/connection.js:64:60) at MessageStream.emit (node:events:517:28) at processIncomingData (/app/node_modules/mongodb/lib/cmap/message_stream.js:117:16) at MessageStream._write (/app/node_modules/mongodb/lib/cmap/message_stream.js:33:9) at writeOrBuffer (node:internal/streams/writable:392:12) at _write (node:internal/streams/writable:333:10) at Writable.write (node:internal/streams/writable:337:10) at Socket.ondata (node:internal/streams/readable:777:22) at Socket.emit (node:events:517:28) { ok: 0, code: 18, codeName: 'AuthenticationFailed', connectionGeneration: 1, [Symbol(errorLabels)]: Set(2) { 'HandshakeError', 'ResetPool' } }

if it's anything like mongose you need to specify the desired database via some config object
